New Wellness Sensation | cbs8.com [Video]

SAN DIEGO — If you’re looking for a morning brew without the jittery side effects of coffee, there’s a new wellness sensation sweeping across the globe: yerba mate.

Registered Dietitian and Author of From Burnout to Balance Patricia Bannan joins our Laura Cavanaugh to share more about Guayakí Yerba Mate and why it’s a sustainable choice to celebrate Earth Day.

Yerba mate is an optimal beverage for an energy boost without the crash, which is why it has become popular with celebrities, athletes and wellness enthusiasts.

In fact, the loose leaf Guayakí Yerba Mate can help improve energy and focus.  It delivers caffeine, theobromine, which can be found in chocolate, and polyphenols, which are found in green tea.

In addition to loose leaf, Guayakí has ready-to-drink cans for when you are on-the-go. And the cans make it super easy to make an energizing mocktail.

Check out Patricia’s nutritious and refreshing mocktail recipes.
